Default Buzzing from Transfer Case shifter area

I have a really obnoxious buzzing coming from the area of the transfer case shifter. It seems to happen mostly when accelerating. If I push forward on the shifter it stops, however, it isn't the shifter itself. can't figure out what it could be under there that is doing it. Anyone had this and have an idea what's making the buzz?

Check your front boot on the driveshaft. Also check to see if there is a stick or some debris in that area. It could something that simple.

I've had this problem for a long time now. My jeep a manual. It happens whenever I'm accelerating and stops when I let off the gas. It's more pronounced in the cab in 4th and 6th gear. I figure it's my front driveshaft but I haven't checked anything yet.

This is in the cab only, sorry if I didn't make that more clear. It's coming from inside near the transfer shifter, possibly under the console.
